About C-Gen Cream

C-Gen Cream is a combination medication primarily used to treat skin infections caused by bacteria.  Bacterial skin infection occurs when bacteria enter the body through broken skin.

C-Gen Cream contains Gentamicin and Clobetasol. Gentamicin works by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required for the survival of the bacteria. Clobetasol works by inhibiting the release of chemical messengers that cause inflammation and redness. Together, C-Gen Cream helps in treating skin infections.

In some cases, C-Gen Cream may cause side-effects such as skin peeling, dryness, burning sensation, irritation, stinging sensation, itching and redness at the site of application. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.

Consult your doctor before using C-Gen Cream if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not use C-Gen Cream in more than prescribed doses, or on a large area of skin for a longer duration as it may cause adverse effects.
